In Tennessee, it's best to stop feeding hummingbirds around mid to late October, as this is when they typically migrate south for the winter. However, keep your feeders up until you are sure the birds have left, as some may linger longer. It's important to continue providing fresh nectar during this time to support any late migrants. After the last sightings, you can clean and store your feeders for the winter.

Why do some hummingbirds appear to pass out while feeding?
Some hummingbirds appear to pass out while feeding due to their unique feeding behavior and high metabolic rate. When they hover to drink nectar, they can enter a state of torpor, which is a temporary hibernation-like state that lowers their metabolic rate to conserve energy. This can make them appear inactive or "passed out" as they rest between feeding bouts. Additionally, the rapid energy consumption from their intense feeding can lead to brief moments of stillness.
